Reasons for revaluing your property
The Rating Valuations Act 1998 requires that the valuation roll held by Auckland City
Council is updated continually to correctly reflect the changes that have occurred to properties as at the commencement of the rating year.
This is not done to advantage or disadvantage property owners for making changes to their property but to recognise any changes which may have occurred since the last valuation, such as:
- subdivision or merger of land title
- improvements made to the property
- a building permit issued and the property developed
- buildings on the property altered or demolished
- the roll has been updated to reflect previously unrecorded historical changes
- the roll has been updated to correct identified errors in property details
which affect valuations.
